You suck!

Hey everyone! To start off this month I will talk about the really useful word:

SUCK

To suck in slang or casual English it means it is horrible, terrible, really really bad.

It is used as a verb:

Man, that movie totally sucked~! It was shit!
Man, that movie was total garbage~! It was horrible!

It is used as an adjective:

A: Have you heard of "The Grillhouse"?

B: Yeah, I've been there. It's a pretty sucky restaurant, you shouldn't go there.

Here suck becomes an adjective by adding the suffix ~y. For example:

He's a weaselly little man.

Meaning he's a small guy who looks or acts like a weasel.
Or you can also used suck as an adjective meaning someone is bad at something or they aren't any good:


Man you suck at basketball!

Dude you suck!

So I hope that helps you out when watching movies or TV shows, have a good week,

Phil
